Stolen Generations Compensation

The Hon. T.J. STEPHENS (14:59): Supplementary: when will the government reach a position as to whether or not it is going to support this bill?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:59): I can't put a date on it, but I do undertake to consult with the honourable member and, once there are firmer positions from this government, to talk to the honourable member about this. At some stage in the future—I can't put a date on it.
